Environment Xcode version: Xcode 16.0 iOS device system version: iOS 18.4 / 18.5 Problem description When debugging iOS 18.4/18.5 on a real device, the App starts very slowly after clicking Run, usually taking 2-3 minutes, which is much slower than iOS 18.3. It manifests as Xcode staying in the Launch stage for a long time, and the application stuck in the opening screen interface. Start the APP first, then attach the process, and this problem will not exist Location process Use lldb to enable logs log enable gdb-remote packets After observing the logs, it was found that: The jam mainly occurs when processing two data packets: jGetLoadedDynamicLibrariesInfos and qProcessInfo These two commands involve dynamic library loading information and process meta information, and the response time is much higher than the normal level, far exceeding other gdb-remote instructions Use Instruments / Profiler to analyze: The CPU peak of the real machine debugserver is concentrated in the dynamic library information loading process of _dyld_process_info_create Is there a way to deploy a modified debugserver on the real machine to further locate the problem How to enable and view the debugsever log to further locate the problem

I had an Intel macbook and I used that to build and release my app to app store but I didn't release for 2 years. Recently a bug was reported that I needed to update the a code and make a new release with my apple silicon macbook. But I get this issue when I go to Product -> Archive. I tried updating pods, as well as adding following line to the Podfile but no change. platform :ios, "12.0" target "myApp" do use_frameworks! pod "AFNetworking" pod "KVNProgress" pod "GCDWebServer" pod "CocoaLumberjack" pod "Intercom" pod "GoogleWebRTC" pod "SAMKeychain" pod "googleapis", :path => '.' pod 'gRPC', '1.0.0' pod 'gRPC-Core', '1.0.0' pod 'gRPC-ProtoRPC', '1.0.0' pod 'gRPC-RxLibrary', '1.0.0' pod 'BoringSSL-GRPC', '0.0.7' end post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target| if target.name == 'BoringSSL-GRPC' target.source_build_phase.files.each do |file| if file.settings && file.settings['COMPILER_FLAGS'] flags = file.settings['COMPILER_FLAGS'].split flags.reject! { |flag| flag == '-GCC_WARN_INHIBIT_ALL_WARNINGS' } file.settings['COMPILER_FLAGS'] = flags.join(' ') end end end end end Nothing worked for me. What do I do now? I appreciate any help

what is the diff between INST_ALL and Instructions(FIXED_INSTRUCTIONS)? also CORE_ACTIVE_CYCLE VS Cycles(FIXED_CYCLES)

So I'm testing a microapp that is contained in an IPFS folder. I use a web3 website that is used to view NFTs and their IPFS files. The app has gyro controls, which are enabled through a confirmation gesture. In iOS 18.5, when I press "Request Permission" button I get the popup to allow the app to acess movement and orientation. In iOS26, pressing the button does nothing. Keep in mind that this only happens through the website, that uses iframes. When I load the IPFS file from a direct link, the popup appears with no issue. I think this might be because iOS26 uses WebGPU or it might be a bug since iOS26 is still in beta.

Start from clean iOS 18.4 simulator. Application tried to request authorisation from user for microphone access. Clicking allow caused the application crashed. Used Swift 6. Report Identifier FB17686864.

How can I allow the popup I am encountering while I run my UI tests with video recording in the Github actions. Since these tests are running on VMs, it's not possible to manually click Allow. Also the remote robot cannot interact with OS-level dialogs.

Test Coverage shows "No Coverage Data" on Xcode 16.3. Code Coverage is checked in my scheme. The same configurations worked on Xcode 16.2 but don't work on Xcode 16.3. any update on when it will be fixed?

Hi! A couple of months ago my app was archiving just fine. Since an xcode update the build fails. Here is what shows at the end of the log. Thank you in advance for any help! Run custom shell script 'Run Script' Failed to package [project folder] Command PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code

I am trying to setup a unversal linking for my new developing app. but it look like not function well. did any one have some examples or demo domains suggest to use? In fact finally my app is just internal using, user will not suppose connect to internet , how can I using the universal linking without a website ? Thanks

I tried using Create ML of Xcode 26.0 beta 7 to generate a model using the "Word Tagging" template, and I received the error: Training progress unavailable - Unexpected error. Using Create ML of XCode 16.4 with the same documentation, I was able to build the model and use it in a test app. I'd like to understand why Create ML of Xcode 26 no longer works.

Xcode 16 insists on showing deprecations of this type: Some.xib SF Symbol 'doc.on.doc' is deprecated, use 'document.on.document' instead. The problem is that the XIBs in question are set with a Deployment Target of macOS 12, where "document.on.document" actually isn't available and produces a missing image. So the warnings are wrong, as they ignore the deployment target set on the XIB. I filed a bug against this long ago and it was ignored. Having given up... does anyone know how to disable this particular warning?

Hi, I requested the https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=6482849843&country=us for getting the information of Goods puzzle sort challange , but the screenshotUrls in the response was empty. Is iTunes search API has issue with getting the screenshot urls ? Is there any plan to update it ?

I know there has been issues with SFSpeechRecognizer in iOS 17+ inside the simulator. Running into issues with speech not being recognised inside the visionOS 2.4 simulator as well (likely because it borrows from iOS frameworks). Just wondering if anyone has any work arounds or advice for this simulator issue. I can't test on device because I don't have an Apple Vision Pro. Using Swift 6 on Xcode 16.3. Below are the console logs & the code that I am using.

Hi, I’m trying to free up space on my computer and have uninstalled Xcode. However, I noticed that many large files remain on the filesystem even after uninstalling it. The largest remaining files (~33 GB) are iOS Simulator images located at: /System/Volumes/Data/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes I attempted to delete them using root privileges, but it seems that these system files are mounted as read-only. I’m reaching out to ask for guidance to ensure that these files do not contain anything important for macOS, and that it’s safe to remove them before getting in recovery mode. Thank you very much for your advice!

I have the this issue when I run the app on iOS Simulator after updating to app to make it compatible with Xcode-16 and iOS-18. after upgradation to Xcode-16 its giving the above error "Executable path is a directory" .This app work fine on Xcode-15 . Note - The issue with iOS Simulator only. From XCode-16 build is created successfully and installed in iOS device.

I have a couple apps in one git repository. I'd like to have a Swift package in that repo as well, shared by apps. In other words, I don't want a separate repo for the Swift package. I followed the instructions here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/organizing-your-code-with-local-packages It seems to work. I can write code like this in my app: import MyLocalPackage func foo() { myLocalPackageFunc() } I notice that the package is not listed under Project > MyApp > Package Dependencies. I don't really care, as long as I can reuse code between apps. But when I try to add this package code to a 2nd app, I'm at a loss. I tried "Add Package Dependencies" and "Add Local", but that creates a different looking setup than the 1st app. The code is browsable in the project navigator. And when I try to build it says "Missing package product 'MyLocalPackage'. The documentation linked above, which I used for the 1st app, does a "New > Package". I don't want a new package. How can I connect the existing one?

We are experiencing networking issues in our iOS application when it is built with Xcode 16 or later. Our app includes a video conferencing feature that works reliably when built with Xcode 15 or earlier — we can sustain hour-long video sessions without interruption. However, when the app is built using Xcode 16 or higher, network connections drop after 2–3 minutes during a session. This triggers an auto-reconnect, which succeeds, but the connection drops again after another 2–3 minutes. This loop continues indefinitely. Key Details: The issue only occurs in TestFlight builds. When running the app via Xcode debugger, the issue does not occur. The issue is consistently reproducible in TestFlight builds created with Xcode 16 or later. TestFlight builds created with Xcode 15 do not exhibit this issue. All the videoconferencing runs on C and C++ code What We’ve Tried: Reviewed Xcode 16+ release notes but found no relevant changes or deprecations. Verified app configuration and entitlements. Confirmed that no app-side changes occurred between the working and broken builds. Request: We’re seeking guidance on what changes in Xcode 16+ could be affecting networking behavior in release/TestFlight builds. Any insight into relevant build settings, compiler changes, or runtime behavior differences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

I could use the Metal System Trace before the most recent update, but now whenever I try to profile using the Metal Counter instrument, I get the [Warning] GPU Service reported error: Selected counter profile is not supported on target device. What is the issue here?

I recently encountered an issue involving Core Data’s new Composite Attributes feature and thought I would share my experience, as well as seek clarification. I created a composite type where all attributes were mandatory, except for one. Subsequently, I added an attribute to an entity and set its type to that composite type. Upon running the app, the console output the following error: CoreData: error: CoreData: error: Row (pk = 85) for entity ‘(EntityName)’ is missing mandatory text data for property ‘(propertyName)’ The way I resolved this was by removing the composite type attribute from the entity, after which the error no longer appeared. I also observed that in another entity, where a different composite type is used, all the attributes were optional — and no error occurred. This raises the question: why must all attributes in a composite type be optional? Furthermore, why does Xcode not inform the developer of this requirement? I have reviewed both the documentation and the WWDC23 “What’s New in Core Data” session, but neither mentions that having non-optional attributes within a composite type will cause such errors and lead to unpredictable application behaviour. Additionally, this issue remains unresolved in another area I raised previously in this topic: Composite Attributes feature requires tvOS deployment target 17.0 or later Composite Attributes feature requires watchOS deployment target 10.0 or later However, I do not have a tvOS or watchOS target, nor do I intend to add one. Could someone from Apple, or anyone with more experience, please clarify why all attributes within a composite type must be optional? And could it be possible for Xcode to flag this at compile time, rather than failing at runtime? Thank you in advance.

Hello! I am trying to automate iOS builds for my Unreal Engine game using Unreal Automation Tool, but I cannot produce a functionnal build with it, while packaging from XCode works perfectly. I have tracked down the issue to a missing file. I'm using the Firebase SDK that requires a GoogleService-Info.plist file. I have copied this file at the root of my project, as the Firebase documentation suggests. I have not taken any manual action to specify that this file needs to be included in the packaged app. The Firebase code checks the existence of this file using NSString* Path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource: @“GoogleService-Info” ofType: @“plist”]; return Path != nil; If I package my app from XCode using Product -> Archive, this test returns true and the SDK is properly initialized. If I package my app using Unreal Engine's RunUAT.sh BuildCookRun, this test returns false and the SDK fails to initialize (and actually crashes upon trying). I have tried several Unreal Engine tricks to include my file, like setting it as a RuntimeDependecies in my projects Build.cs file. Which enables Unreal Engine code to find it, but not this direct call to NSBundle. I would like to know either how to tell Unreal Engine to include files at the root of the app bundle, or what XCode does to automatically include this file and is there a way to script it? I can provide both versions .xcarchive if needed. Thanks!
